Influences on Memory Stimuli towards GenderMemory and recall are critical to learning. Of equal importance is its role in furthering the development of the individual.

Differences in memory processing between words and nonlinguistic stimuli have received much attention in experiments and studies. Which do you think has a better retention? An experiment conducted by Lauren Seifert in 1997 looked at size relativity of categorized words and pictures and proposed that ÃÂpictures have privileged access to semantic memoryÃÂ (Seifert, 1997). In a similar study by Stephen Dewhurst who looked at high and low imageability words versus pictures found, ÃÂa picture superiority effect was foundÃÂ overall recognition performance was significantly higher for pictures than for wordsÃÂ (Dewhurst, 1994). More interestingly, these perceived memories most often had more sensoryÃÂperceptual and contextual...
